Greta's 1

It's true! Our little princess turned one this past weekend. We so love having Greta as part of our family. She is so full of love and fun!  It's astounding how quickly a year has past. For her birthday she grew a few wisps of hair and her first tooth broke through.  

The day of her birth! Much anticipated. She came a whole week early. I remember the Sunday before her birth I prayed that she would come that week. I was so done being pregnant and couldn't bear facing another Sunday in my gargantuan state. I TOLD Heavenly Father that I could last till Friday, exactly one week before she was due.  Wednesday evening the contractions began and by early Friday afternoon she was in my arms. 

This picture was taken when she was only 4 days old. Look at her smile. She still snuggles that little turtle.



This is the parcel that arrived from her Grandma Kilistoff. 
She loves the Winnie the Pooh card and often hugs and kisses it.
Thanks for the maracas, adorable outfit and sunglasses Grandma and Grandpa K!
She's got this guy wrapped around her finger.

A little snack after her aerobic workout!  ha ha
Surrounded by her gifts.  She was given the rocking horse from her  Vernon Burnham cousins and loaned a walker from her Stanwood Burnham cousins.  Greta just might catch up to Van. :)
We had a princess party. Not that she would remember or even care but she shared her birthday with her cousin Tori that turned 3 the next day.
  Enjoying her birthday cupcake! Which she absolutely loved. It was like listening to her father eating when he really enjoys it. Anyone whose knows Ryan knows what I'm talking about. 

Happy Birthday Greta! WE LOVE YOU!
